Help Needed!! (07 Octavia VRS)

I've recently picked up my Octavia and I'm looking for the best way to connect my Ipod to the AUX

If anyone could give me any tips that would be great!

(I'm sure you have already been over this a thousand times!!)

Isn't there an input for this in the jumbo box?

If you are looking on Stu's site then it is possible to wire up the Aux as normal.
At the bottom of this page Octavia-vRS.com - MFD2 Install Guide it shows the connections for the Aux.

Re: Help Needed!! (07 Octavia VRS)

I use a Stereo 3.5mm Digital Audio Cable, Made for iPod™
these can be found at ZIP-LINQ Retractable Cables and Retractable Cable Accessories! and purchased through Amazon.

Rather than use the 'headphone' socket, they use the dock connector to give better quality and volume control.

Use Aux setting 1 on the Stereo in the car.
